| Summary: | Despite the amazing advances produced in our understanding of the pathogenesis of psoriasis, which have led to a therapeutic revolution, our knowledge of the mechanisms of relapse and elicitation of lesions is just starting to unravel. This narrative review tours the different cell types and mechanisms involved in the priming, maintenance, and relapse of psoriasis vulgaris. Our discussion includes dendritic cells, T cells, tissue resident memory cells and mast cells, with a foray into the epigenetic mechanisms of inflammatory memory in keratinocytes. Increasing knowledge is providing a glimpse of a potential therapeutic window of opportunity in psoriasis, providing long term remission and eventual modification of the natural history of the disease. |
